    Wife & I went to Kellog in Jackson, TN to pick up a load & we had to wait 4 hours to be loaded. Had to turn in my key because they can't have the truck idle while its being loaded. Hot & miserable 4 hours. Good news is that unlike at the Ford factory....I remembered to get my keys back. Woot Woot ! Sent a Mac 14 for detention pay. Parked at the Pilot down the road from this place for the night. I-40 Exit 85. Nice pilot. Friendly staff. Place looks new.

    Last place that asked me for a key just told me to give them my spare and leave the truck running.

    My wife is featured in this months issue of 18 Wheels & Heels magazine. A monthly magazine geared toward lady truckers.

    We went to a Jackson Generals baseball game Thursday night across the freeway from that Pilot. We are big Mariners fans and the Generals are their AA Affiliate. We dropped our trailer at the Pilot and stayed at a hotel a couple of miles away. Great evening as it was THIRSTY THURSDAY at the ballpark. $1.00 admission, $1.00 hot dogs, $1.00 beer and $1.00 popcorn. A dang cheap date.

    She is on Twitter. She posted a picture of her with an outfit that matched our truck. That got the attention of the magazine. Lol.

    We've been home for the past few days. First time home in 2 months. Feels good to lay in my own bed.
